AM Workout:
Key Workout: 20 mile run, Ultra Style (8 minute run/2 minute walk intervals)
Course: 5 laps on Boardwalk
Time, including walks: 3:15:40 (9:47 pace)
Weather: 45F, Cloudy, Moderately Windy
Oh boy I was just itching, ITCHING to get this run in. Yesterday I was thwarted by being underdressed for the rainy weather. Today, I brought my entire wardrobe with me for the run. After getting the proper gear ready, I finally headed out for the 5 laps needed to pull off the 20 miles.
The Boardwalk course is very nice for long runs because there are water fountains and bathrooms all along its length in case nature calls. In to those lovely perks, I get to run by my car after each lap in case I need Cliff Bars or Gatorade. I needed none of these today, just a little water to keep the skids greased.
The run was strong throughout. As a matter of fact, as I write this 3 hours after the run, I feel my legs have more to give. I wouldn't be surprised to go out for a nice short run this afternoon. Heh, it'll definitely be posted here when that happens!
